Light a candle today for my father (and my family) ...

16 years ago today he lost his best friend, high school sweetheart, true love, soulmate ... Our mom ... At 40 to cancer.

Too this day if he talks about it or thinks too hard about it, still brings tears to his eyes ... How beautiful to love someone so completely, but how very painful at the same time.

I Love You and Miss You Terribly Mom :bunchflowers:

For Spirit Dancer, T and the little one
Two candles
one for peace
one for hope

A room full of candles. Chants. The tinkling of tiny bells. Tired knees. Hands clasped. Head bowed. Looking to the stars. A dance. A turn around the beads. A Good Book. Our collective voice is needed ... ring it out to the universe for Syr. For Spirit Dancer. We can do this. Our breath is Life!

I have been asked by my new meditation group to send a request to love and light to a wonderful woman who is facing dialysis. She diabetic and also has a detoriating liver due to years of meds. She is wanting to fight for life and I honor her choice.

I'm lighting a candle for our Ruthie. She is going through a loss that is very hard. so, Ruthie... please know that you are being thought about and I am very sorry for your loss.

I thought there was more time before symptoms began again. She responded so well to the chemo. I light a candle today for my sister, Dolo, who had a seizure on Sunday, and probably wouldn't have told me except for my questioning why she has an appointment with a neurologist. There was something additional found on her brain, and a PET scan is pending. She starts radiation treatment on Monday.

I thought I was ready and prepared for this, but truly, I'm not. So, if you have anything left over, a prayer, some light for me, too. I need to buck up for her kids. Especially my oldest niece. A candle for them and her husband, too.

I light this candle for Dolo, her family, as well as for waxnrope, whose strength and loving nature is needed in the midst of this painful time.

There's always light for you my friend and for Dolo and her family.
I light these for you all and a bond that spams across the dateline.
She feels your love and support as you feel her fear and pain.
Pulling together here we are sending light to you all.

I've been really bad about coming here to light candles even though I say prayers for all of you

I can feel the flames from all the candles ever lit since this thread started and am thankful to all who have taken the time to pray for themsleves and for others. Without this powerful prayer circle that we've created thanks to SD, we'd not have each other to reach out to in our time of need.

I've had my own pity party going on and almost gave up hope until a good friend said some things about my job hunt and I better not dare let it defeat me. So, today I pushed on with the hunt and will continue to have my private talks with the higher ups. I know with faith, hope and prayer a job will come my way.

Me, keeping candles lit at home for those in need
When you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, we're here
Keeping that circle of light and love with faith, hope and prayer

wolfy, when we reach inside and touch our wounds and unwrinkle our fears, we are not having a pity party...we are merely loving ourselves....

allow yourself that...

and keep working....the job will come

Soft*Silver 09-16-2010 08:44 PM

turning my head as I hear a door close....

the light goes out

I wait in the darkness

the hand of the gentle pine graces my cheek

as the night skies trickle light

that promises no matter where we come from

no matter where we go

even when its done

Light will always show

Prayer for Spirit Dancer
 
:candle::candle::candle:

Flames flicker and cast dancing shadows
emit fragrance of freshly washed linen
warm a cool corner with
Blue and yellow and red
I look into the beckoning fingers and smoke
offering a prayer
a plea
for Spirit Dancer.
Upon my altar
the anguish felt for a health care system
That is neither healthy nor
caring.
I place my hopes that SD has not suffered another stroke.
That she be given what is needed to endure what is necessary to endure.
That her faith
her fierce love and loyalty
remain true and steadfast
through the power of the Great Spirit
and the love of her family and friends.
In Your many names, I pray. Amen

Lighting a candle tonight for Dolo, my sister. She begins radiation therapy shortly. There is a 13 hour time difference between here and Zurich, already Monday morning.

This candle is for hope. It is for courage in the midst of fear. It is a candle of love.

JustBeingMe 09-19-2010 11:43 PM

Please........
 
Please light a candle for me and say prayers that the Truth sets me free !! I need all the prayers I can get to get me through this right now. Thank you all very much.

:candle:
:praying:
